Euphorbias

We have a great range of Euphorbias coming on line this week and a couple of varieties that are new to us this year.
Pictured here is Euphorbia Efanthia. This is a fully hardy perennial with small, green leaves with purple tinges on the edges and red undersides. It produces yellow balls of flower from June to September. Plant in moist but fertile, well drained soil in full sun or partial shade. H: 30cm S:25cm.
Also looking great this week is Euphorbia Red Wings ~ an evergreen perennial that is very free flowering and Euphorbia Whistleberry Garnet which has beautiful red winter buds.
Please be aware that Euphorbias can irritate the skin and can be harmful if ingested.
